Ultra Mattes can be used as eyeshadow or contour color, or as liquid liner.
To use as an eyeshadow, tip the container at an angle, and tap it until some powder rests on the edge of the sifter. Gently swirl the firm shadow brush into the powder, and then tap the handle of the brush onto the side of the container, letting excess powder fall back into the jar. Apply the shadow with short, firm strokes, then follow up with a swipe of the blending brush until all visible lines are softened.
For liquid liner, wet the angled liner brush, then dip the wet brush into the powder. Make a creamy paste on the back of your hand or in the top of the container. The consistency should not be runny. Then trace a thin line around the lash, staying as close to the lash as possible. Once the liner has dried, it can be left as-is, or smudged with the firm shadow brush for a softer effect.
